Capo III

G Em Am D G

G        Em
I was lost till you were found
Am        D
But I never knew how far down
   G
I was falling,
     Em     C   D
before I reached the bottom

G       Em
I was cold and you were fire
Am        D
And I never knew how the pyre
     G
Could be burning,
    Em     C     D
on the edge of the ice field

      C     D   G
And the now chilly California wind,
  C        D    G
is blowing down our bodies again
     Am   Em     Am       G         D
And were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly California sand
   C     Am   Em       G
Oh, I know you belong inside my aching heart
  Em        Am     D     Am
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart?
  Em
And don't you hear me crying;
  G
Oh babe, don't go?
Am
And don't you hear me screaming;
D
How was I to know?

G          C
I'm in the middle of nowhere,
D          G
near the end of the line
            C
But there's a border to somewhere waiting,
D            G
and there's a tankful of time
         C       D            G
Oh, give me just another moment, to see the light of the day,
        C         D        G
and take me to another land where, I don't have to stay

Em        D        C         G
And I'm going to need somebody to make me feel like you do
Em      D          C
And I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes,
Am                          D
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through
Em       D
For crying out loud,
      G
you know I love you
Em       D
For crying out loud,
      G
you know I love you
Em       D
For crying out loud,
      C  G  Em Am G D
you know I love you

G        Em
I was damned and you were saved,
Am        D
and I never knew how enslaved,
   G
I was kneeling;
    Em      C   D
in the chains of my master

G         Em
I could laugh but you could cry,
Am        D
and I never knew just how high,
   G
I was flying;
     Em     C   D
ah, with you right above me

      C     D   G
And the now chilly California wind,
  C        D    G
is blowing down our bodies again
     Am   Em     Am       G         D
And were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly California sand
   C     Am   Em       G
Oh, I know you belong inside my aching heart
  Em        Am     D     Am
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart?
  Em
And don't you hear me crying;
  G
Oh babe, don't go?
Am
And don't you hear me screaming;
D
How was I to know?

G          C
I'm in the middle of nowhere,
D          G
near the end of the line
            C
But there's a border to somewhere waiting,

D            G
and there's a tankful of time
         C       D            G
Oh give me just another moment, to see the light of the day,
        C         D        G
and take me to another land where, I don't have to stay
Em        D        C         G
And I'm going to need somebody to make me feel like you do
Em      D          C
And I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes,
Am                          D
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through
Em       D
For crying out loud,
      G
you know I love you
Em       D
For crying out loud,
      G
you know I love you
Em       D
For crying out loud,
      C  G  Em Am G D
you know I love you

G
For taking in the rain when I'm feeling so dry,
  Am
for giving me the answers when I'm asking you why,
C     D
and my oh my,
      G
for that I thank you

For taking in the sun when I'm feeling so cold,
  Am
for giving me a child when my body is old,
C       D
and don't you know,
      G
for that I need you?

For coming to my room when you know I'm alone,
  Am
for finding me a highway and driving me home,
C       D
and you got to know,
      G
for that I serve you?

For pulling me away when I'm starting to fall,
  Am
for revving me up when I'm starting to stall,
C     D
and all in all,
      G
for that I want you

For taking and for giving and for playing the game,
  Am
For praying for my future in the days that remain,


C  D
Oh, lord,
      G
for that I hold you
        Em
Ah, but most of all
        D
For crying out loud,
      G
for that I love you
         Em
Who, but most of all,
        D
for crying out loud,
      G
for that I love you

         Em
Who, but most of all,
        D
for crying out loud,
      G    G Em G Em
For that I love you
      Em     D
When you're crying out loud,
      C  G
You know I love you
